Hello,
@Nick Desaulniers made a patch (51da9dfb7f20911ae4e79e9b412a9c2d4c373d4b) and it was accepted to mainline as part of ClangBuiltLinux project to make the kernel compatible with Clang's integrated assembler. Please consider cherry picking it back to 5.4 so that we can use Clang's integrated assembler to assemble ChromeOS' Linux kernels.
This would be helpful for us in Android, too. Seems like CrOS might beat us to the punch in enabling LLVM_IAS=1. I'm looking to do so for Android later this year after Android 11 ships, depending on whether 5.4 is a supported kernel (I suppose so, not sure of the plans in relation to mainline).
